[인터풋볼] Reporter Park Ji-won = Son Heung-min, who performed a great job with two goals and one assist, was selected as the team of Lee Ju.
The Premier League Secretariat unveiled the English Premier League (EPL) Round 35 team on the 3rd (Korean time). The selection process involves ‘legend’ Alan Shearer. The formation is 4-3-3, and Son Heung-min and Christian Romero are named for Tottenham Hotspur.
Heung-Min Son and Romero each played key roles in the air in their home match against Leicester City. First, Heung-Min Son produced 3 attack points (2 goals and 1 assist) and was the one who led the team to a great victory. He handled a sharp corner kick in the 22nd minute and helped Harry Kane score a header.
In the second half, he came out on his own as a solver. In the 15th minute of the second half, Dejan Kulusevsky smashed into the front of the penalty box from the right side and passed to Son Heung-min rushing into the door. Heung-Min Son scored with a calm turning shot. Also, in the 34th minute of the second half, Son Heung-min fired a bold shot in front of the penalty box, and the ball was sucked into the goal while drawing a fantastic trajectory.
Heung-Min Son scored 19 goals and provided 7 assists in the season as he recorded 2 goals and 1 assist. This is second in the scoring rankings, three goals behind Mohamed Salah (22 goals), and tied for 10th in the assists ranking. For himself, he vomited the spirit of breaking career highs.
The best player (KOTM) for Leicester was, of course, Heung-Min Son’s share, and he was also selected as the team of the week selected by the British public broadcaster ‘BBC’. In addition, the British ‘The Athletic’ highlighted Son Heung-min’s left-footed goal and evaluated “Son Heung-min is the best two-footed shooter in the Premier League.”
For Shearer, “unplayable. Heung-Min Son was directly involved in all three goals and scored with two great shots. He’s making Sala nervous about the golden boot race.”
If there was Son Heung-min in the front, Romero firmly defended the rear. Romero recorded 2 successful contentions, 3 successful tackles, 5 clearings, 3 interceptions, and 2 successful dribbles against Leicester. “Romero helped turn the tide towards Tottenham,” Shearer said.
Dermaray Gray, Danny Ings, Heung-Min Son, Phil Foden, Jack Cork-Navi Keita, Mark Cucurella-Rob Holding-Romero-Joao Cancelou and Jordan Pickford were selected as the Best Eleven of the EPL Round 35. The manager was Mikel Arteta.
